Existing Ember project not launching with ember electron

[kdawgwilk]

Here is my current versions

package.json electron dependency versions
"electron-packager": "6.0.0",
"electron-prebuilt": "0.37.5",
"electron-rebuild": "1.1.3",
"ember-electron": "1.3.2",

$ ember -v
ember-cli: 2.4.3
node: 4.4.2
os: darwin x64

After running ember install ember-electron and configuring project trying to run ember electron gives me this:

Also after running ember electron:package --platform darwin and trying to launch app I get this

Thanks for reporting! I'ts a bit hard to see because of the whiteouts, but is there a comma in the app name? I'd assume that the trouble is that the app and the generator disagree over where the app is located. To fix:

• In package.json, ensure that all names are filesystem-compliant (ideally: A-Z;0-9)
• Check your filesystem, especially electron-builds. Where is the app?

[felixrieseberg]

Oh, and if you changed your app's name, you should probably run ember g ember-electron again.

[kdawgwilk]

Yeah sorry about the white out 😁 those are actually the letter y and the name is made up of just letters and - ? Any other ideas?

[felixrieseberg]

It's definitely the app name - or, if you're sure that the files are there on disk, you might have an error in that file that keeps it from being successfully exported.

[kdawgwilk]

Which file would have the error? electron.js?

for me, with the same versions and OS, the electron app is just shown in the dock but no app window pops up :(

No errors too. I tried packaging it and opening the executable but still the same.

And to add to this information, the tests ember electron:test work just fine. Just not the app itself

Update: I forgot I was pointing to some express-server accommodating code. I probably need to re-try

[kdawgwilk]

I also was able to run the tests fine not sure why one would run and the other not
